Everybody's broke, no one is immune to fomo, and It's expensive to be poor. Corporations are the one's aiming for the cheapest profits, they're who landed on slavery and pollution as a means to cheaper profit. This isn't a permission structure, it's just what's happening. Why have feelings toward your broke friend for getting some summer 'fits, instead of railing against the suppliers with the dangerous practices? Pshh.. outta here with that personal responsibility > corporate accountability, fuckin grifters get more protection than the grifted
Fig 1 is a modified emotional change curve applied in learning and business settings. The term "Valley of Despair" is used in both concepts, and it's cool, memorable verbiage, but it shouldn't imply relation between Dunning-Kreuger and the change curve
Image description: A modified emotional change curve from Evocon with Y-Axis being "attitude during change process" and X-Axis is time. There are 6 emotional phases described on this chart: 1. Neutral attitude, no knowledge; 2. Initial excitement, motivated; 3. Denial, indifferent, passive, apathy; 4. Resistance, frustration, doubt, anxiety (this phase falls below neutral and is described as "The Valley of Despair"); 5. Exploration, energized, small wins, creative; 6. Commitment, enthusiasm, problem solving, focus, team work.
That's the Overton Window I'm talkin' about
It's a long shot but hoping to rally some support for Barred Owl! Hurry and vote for BO! Saw Whet has that pokemon vibe and Barred does too! Snake haters, this is your owl!
Donnie will be so sad if Barred doesn't make it to the sweet sixteen. Do it for Donnie 🦉
Yes. And her (the actresses) role in Three Body Problem is like that characters development. If you want some Keiko head cannon, bc.. while some femme baddies were written really well (like Win, probably only Win) there's a hesitation, a lack of commitment to the thought project of darkness in a loving mother, doting wife.
How!? How is there no reproductions of this homage to Rodin's masterpiece Balzac? I thought I read they were circulated during the controversy and anticipated some kind of availability, mais a las, il n'y a pas de petit sceau pour moi
Who down votes this!? SLAY
Sorry about your bad day. Hope you have good sleep and feel refreshed in the morning 🖖
Me too! Drop Dead Fred made me think it was a thing! Also Phoebe Cates is so convincing
Love the one downvote. Makes it seem like someone needs their counter top of suffering, more than the lives of those who made it
Don't stop trying.
Exactly. It's still team sports at the end of the day and they'll fall in line behind whatever wins. And Trump wins for them but sure, a few "adults in the room" make it more palatable

Tldr: they get everywhere and the population grows super fast, smaller bodies of water may have issues with the boom before the population reaches equilibrium. Not an expert, just from Ohio, Lake Erie anecdote below. And I don't know if they displaced anything else to occupy this novel niche.
Zebra Mussels got into Lake Erie bunch a years ago and the population exploded so fast people were worried the colonies would block stuff, whole waterways by some estimates. But it turned out they were living off something in the water "that made the water cloudy and brown", idk pollutants or an algae thing? So after a few years there was less of that food source and the Zebra Mussel population found an equilibrium. There were issues, something about getting them off boats, so people were at work to protect infrastructure. Now Lake Erie is clearer and they just found those 40 circles on the bottom, there were some great headlines a week or two back, but they're just sinkholes, not alien structures, whomp whomp
